| description | Benign prostatic obstruction (BPH) is a common disease in males and surgical treatment is the gold standard for this symptomatic disease. Prostate artery embolization (PAE) is one of the emerging therapies which aims to minimize the lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) of BPH and the volume of enlarged prostates. We reported here a case of 100-year-old man with 90 cm<sup>3</sup> prostate and severe symptoms secondary to BPH, who underwent a successful PAE through distal transradial access without any complications. The patient was satisfied with this treatment and no symptoms recurred after PAE. This demonstrated that PAE was a safe and effective treatment for BPH and was recommended for elderly/non-surgical candidates. |
